Manoj denied the recent buzz that claimed his reunion with Varma saying, “I don`t see it happening again. At least not in the near future.”

The actor earned immense popularity with his role of Bhiku Mhatre .Several of his films received critical appreciation which include ‘Zubaida’, ‘Shool’, ‘Pinjar’ and Raykesh Omprakash Mehra`s ‘Aks’.

Manoj’s next project to hit screens Prakash Jha`s multi-starrer political drama ‘Rajneeti’. Bajpai said, "Politics is not my cup of tea. ”Speaking about his working experience with Jha, the actor said, "We both come from the same place in Bihar so we had great tuning. Prakash is a great director and knows how to get the best from his artistes."
